Paul shares his journey of awakening and explains how it has shaped his mission to help others reconnect with their authentic selves. Paul, who spent over 30 years as the senior pastor of Life Church in Bradford, has shifted his focus to helping people "wake up" to their potential. Drawing from his life experiences, he discusses the importance of creating safe spaces for people to embrace their true selves and challenge societal norms. From navigating the education system to breaking free from the "rat race," Paul shares powerful insights on leadership, personal transformation, and being true to yourself. Key Highlights: Waking Up to Authenticity: Paul explains the concept of 'waking up' and how childhood experiences often stifle authenticity. He emphasises the importance of feeling seen and safe to help individuals consciously awaken to their true selves.

Breaking Free from Social Norms: Paul offers practical advice for those who felt out of place in their youth but didn’t understand why.

In this episode of The Courage to Create, Caggie reflects on the unexpected twists and turns that shaped her creative journey, reminding us that it's never too late to pursue our passions, no matter where life takes us. Caggie shares her time in LA, where she spent two years immersed in the music industry before the idea for Saturn Returns was even born. She opens up about the challenges she faced in discovering her voice as an artist and how the destabilizing years between 27 and 30 ultimately led her down a different path. This unanchored period became the foundation for Saturn Returns, inspiring her to explore deeper themes of spirituality, identity, and transformation. As she approached 30, Caggie experienced a personal crisis, feeling the pressure of time running out to “make it.” A failed relationship and the close of her Saturn Return prompted deeper introspection, leading her to a healer who shifted her perspective. This liberation sparked a new wave of creativity, allowing her to launch Saturn Returns and reignite her passion for music. During the pandemic, Caggie collaborated with producer Luca, who helped push her creative boundaries and refine her songwriting. Their time together in Mexico rekindled her connection to music and storytelling, setting her back on the path of releasing her own work.

The Courage To Create Origins Story - Caggie's Journey with Music 20:24

29 weeks fa20:24

20:24

In this episode, Caggie opens up about her deep and complex relationship with music, tracing it back to her early years and sharing the emotional journey she's experienced along the way. Key Themes: Caggie's Relationship with Music from a Young Age: From her earliest memories, music has played a pivotal role in Caggie’s life. However, as she grew older, her connection to music became both a source of joy and vulnerability. Vulnerability in Sharing Music: Caggie discusses how sharing her music has always made her feel exposed, as it’s a form of self-expression that brings up intense vulnerability. Fears Around Singing: Despite her love for music, Caggie reflects on the fears she’s carried around singing, particularly in front of others. These fears have often held her back from fully stepping into her creative potential. Love-Hate Relationship with Music: While music has been a lifelong passion, Caggie dives into the complexities of her love-hate relationship with it. There have been moments where the pressure to perform and succeed overshadowed her natural love for the art. Pressure, Fears, and Failures: The pressures that come with creativity often bring fears of failure. Caggie shares how these feelings have surfaced throughout her career, particularly during her time on Made in Chelsea (MIC). Creativity – Why All or Nothing? Caggie explores the idea of why creativity sometimes feels like an all-or-nothing pursuit. She questions when creativity shifted from being a joyful expression to something to be criticised or scrutinised. Creative Blockers: A significant part of Caggie’s journey has been dealing with creative blockers. She reflects on the fear of how her music will be received and the external judgment that has haunted her, especially the notion that she’ll never be taken seriously because of her background in reality TV. Where Does the Fear Come From? Caggie contemplates the root of her fear. Is it simply fear of the unknown? Is it tied to ego and self-belief? These are the big questions she grapples with as an artist. Ego and Self-Belief: How does ego get in the way of true creativity? Caggie shares her thoughts on how ego can sometimes overshadow creative expression and how developing a strong sense of self-belief is key to overcoming this. Creativity as an Offering: A powerful idea Caggie shares is that creativity is not something we control, but rather an offering. It chooses the artist to come through, and it’s up to us to honour that process. Discovering Herself in Her 20s: Throughout her 20s, Caggie navigated the journey of discovering who she is, both as a person and an artist. This period of her life was marked by experimentation with different styles of music and self-expression. — Stay tuned every Friday for new episodes of The Courage To Create .

9.6 Fertility, motherhood, and the power of the female form with Dr Helen O'Neill 1:05:30

1 year fa1:05:30

1:05:30

Dr Helen takes us on her mission to better understand the female form and women’s health. We discuss why there is such a huge misunderstanding when it comes to the female productive system and how she aims to make her knowledge accessible and translatable. Understanding menstrual cycles: We journey through the rhythmic and cyclical expressions of our hormones and how they can cause many intense psychological, anatomical and physical changes within our body. Dr Helen helps us to understand each phase of the menstrual cycle and what it means for us and our mood. The Male Hormonal System: We discover how profound the hormonal impact is on men by exploring their natural 24 hour cycle of hormones in comparison to a female lunar cycle. Dr Helen also draws parallels between other natural cycles and how, as humans, they all impact our capabilities to complete certain tasks. Fear of the Female Form: We unpick fears surrounding female anatomy and form. Dr Helen explains how we have mirrored feelings passed on through our parents and the impact this has on society's understanding of it. Infertility: It’s a conversation that I feel so many people are having. I ask Dr Helen about the increasing rate of infertility and why those statistics have changed over the years. We look beyond the statistics by looking into our own health and genetics to get a more honest analysis of our reproductive health. We also dispel some myths surrounding fertility such as drinking, contraception and age. We also touch on freezing eggs and why she isn’t afraid to say she got pregnant by accident. The Choice: Often women can feel the need to make a choice between success and motherhood. We discuss the powerful and profound skillset that females naturally have and why we choose to ignore our maternal instincts. Dr Helen also gives a personal account of what motherhood means to her and how it transformed her perspective This Episode was made possible by our friends at Healf.
